He does that sort of thing all the time yet there are still absolutely morons out there who think he’s a nice old man and shouldn’t be held accountable for his and his colleagues lies, deceit and underachievement.

Have just seen his latest Twitter response to a fan who said he was 50/50 around renewing his season ticket and Gold’s arrogant reply was telling him if he was only 50% committed he shouldn’t renew. Incredible and surely will mean he will continue to get such flack from fans.

It would not be a surprise if it was staged. Its what these owners seem to do. I work with Brum fans and they all said its what they did there too when things got tough for them.

PR they call it when to me most of what they say is what they used to call it in the old days before PR .... "propaganda". Goebbels himself would doff his cap at some of what they churn out via modern media channels ;-)

Former Birmingham City midfielder Curtis Woodhouse has hit back at online trolls who sent him ‘death threats’.

Woodhouse, who has also enjoyed a professional boxing career, criticised West Ham United supporters on Twitter over the weekend.

The Hammers lost 4-1 at Swansea City on Saturday to leave fans angry, and Woodhouse hit out at them on Sunday morning.

He tweeted: “The arrogance of West Ham fans is off the chain. They go off like they are European giants when in reality they are a very small London club that have never ever been any good. I don't understand how they think they should be challenging?? Delusional.”

The 37-year-old was inundated with responses from disgruntled fans, some of whom Woodhouse claims to have overstepped the mark.

He added: “Waking up to death threats in my DMs on a Monday morning from West Ham fans!! I'm not 81 years old and I'm not David Gold, you can't bully and intimidate me you idiots. The West Ham way eh, pathetic.”

Woodhouse has previously tracked down a Twitter troll and turned up on his doorstep to seek retribution.

He was so enraged with the foul-mouthed abuse he received from James O’Brien after losing a fight in 2013 that he offered a £1,000 reward to any of his Twitter followers who could help him find the culprit.

After his plea paid off he drove 60 miles from his home in Driffield, East Yorkshire, to the ‘keyboard warrior’s’ address and tweeted a picture of his street in South Yorkshire.

But the cowardly troll – who branded himself the 'Keyboard Warrior' – frantically replied: “I’m sorry. It’s getting out of hand. I’m in the wrong, I accept that.”

I blame him as much, if not more, than the others. Sullivan is a despicable liar, Brady a waste of space but Gold!

I remember clearly the day they took over the club Gold standing outside Upton Park, pointing across the road and saying 'I lived over there', we are West Ham! So where has our 'West Ham' co-chairman been whilst the club has been brought to his knees, he certainly hasn't been fighting a good fight.

I see that Talkshite are doing their usual stoking this up on Twitter in last hour - you can be sure Jim White will discuss tomorrow !

Ps. With regards the Hitler comment - was watching something on tv the other day (forgotten what now!) but it was made in 70s/80s and there was a comment almost identical “he I causing more damage than Hitler ever did” ... funny enough nobody did or would complain !
